Birth Control :: Cerazette - Spotting (no Longer Than 3-4 Days).
Jan 5, 2016
I've been on cerazette for almost 2 years. During that time I've pretty much had no periods but every now and then a little bit of spotting (no longer than 3-4 days).
Since December I have been spotting pretty much every day, every other day. I haven't changed anything about my routine.
I was wondering if this had happened to anyone else?
I spoke to my sexual health clinic and they said that I had no STIs and my cervix was fine so they didn't know why I all of a sudden have a problem. They said I can change my birth control but I was happy on cerazette until last month and not keen to use the coil or injection which are my only other options.

Just want to inform people of my experience taking the Cerazette pill.
I had happily been taking the Microgynon for a few years when I forgot to get my prescription one month and ended up not going back on it. I went to the doctor as I felt so much better for coming off the Microgynon, I had lost weight and just felt happier within myself.
I saw the doctor and spoke about all my options, I am dead set against the implant and the injection, I thought I'd prefer to go on a pill again.. I was prescribed the Cerazette and thought nothing more about it.
I went to see the doctor about an on-going knee complaint, a few days prior to my appointment I noticed I had a lump to my left shin, I showed the nurse the lump, she reassured me it was nothing and it would go away. I wasn't 100% convinced.
Around two weeks later, my knee still being sore, the lump had only got bigger and I now had a swollen ankle, I went back to see a doctor, I saw a locum doctor who was concerned about the lump on my leg and queried "?osteosarcoma". I asked the doctor at the time if my swollen ankle could have been caused by the pill but she said no, it would be "lateral". The next day I went for an urgent x ray on my shin, the lump was painful. I waited four days for my results and went back to the doctor, this time I saw a different Locum doctor- My results showed no signs of a sarcoma, that day I was sent for blood tests and an urgent ultrasound was requested.. In the meantime, I found a second lump on my other leg, just under my knee, it was also painful. Five days later, my blood results came back and I was hopeful to get answers about my ankle. Blood tests were fine, not even my inflammatory pointers were up, the doctor was pleased but also confused as to what it could be. I was told I would referred to a specialist consultant and I was still awaiting an appointment for my "urgent" ultrasound.. Three weeks later and I have only just had said ultrasound. The radiographer said he was confident that I do not have cancer, which is brilliant news. I may still be referred to a specialist as they are still unsure as to what is wrong with my ankle, however, my mum has been doing lots of research and considering I am only 21 and on no other current medication other than the Cerazette, we could not think of anything else that may be causing these problems. On Thursday, I took it upon myself to stop taking the Cerazette, it is now Tuesday and my ankle has gone down considerably, the lumps on my legs have also reduced.
It has really made me think, putting all these hormones in our bodies is not good ladies and you really should be careful with what you are taking. I know plenty of girls that take these pills and have no problems what so ever, but there are plenty of other girls, like myself, that have had bad experiences with them and it is really really scary.

I was previously on the Cerazette pill in November, I took it for approx 6 weeks- However it wasn't for me. So I stopped on the 18th of December, and my period began straight away (Up until then it was pretty much just 6 weeks of solid bleeding! Barely any pain) I then got one again around the 25th of January. However the past 2ish weeks I have been having brown discharge and the past few days it has been BLACK with a little back pain and traces of fresh blood as well. I do have a partner and we had unprotected sex however he did not finish (I know, not a smart move) but the bleeding started a day later.

I took Cerazette for 9 days, felt so ill i came straight off it. Anxiety attacks, racing heart, was off work for 8 weeks it was a nightmare. its now 3 months on, my periods are getting somewhat back to normal, but i've been left with a fast heart rate. I've been rushed to A&E a few times its been so fast i thought i was having a heart attack. i'm now on beta blockers to keep it under control until it's investigated. its ok sat down, but if i try and walk or do anything it goes through the roof.
I've heard of other women that have had this but i'm desperate to find out whether it will eventually go back to normal on it's own or has it left me with long term issues.

I had my birth control (Nexplanon) inserted at the beginning of March, and had somewhat normal periods, coming once a month. I did just have a regular period about 3 weeks ago, and then last week I had two days of spotting, and that was it, and then the spotting came back yesterday and is gone now. Sometimes they are accompanied by mild cramps, nothing too bad though. I've also gained 4lbs in the past week, and I've been the same weight for about 5 years now. I have been having unprotected sex since I've had it in, and I'm not quite sure why my symptoms are the way they are!

I have endometriosis and have been on continuous birth control for the past 2 years. In this time I haven't had any bleeding.
However, about a month ago I started spotting, then it turned to bleeding which has required the use of feminine hygiene products every day.
I want to take a break from my birth control and give my body a chance to refresh.. I just want to know - will I remain protected from pregnancy if I take a week off (as I have not at all)?

This is my third month on Microgynon 30, and I ran two packets back to back because of a party I was going to, but a few days after I started taking the second pack I had some slight bleeding. I didn't think anything of it because I was told this can happen for a few days. It's a few weeks later now and it's still happening. It's only very light bleeding (it does vary a bit, sometimes there's nothing, but it's never been enough to have to wear a pad). I think I've learnt my lesson that my body just doesn't accept two back-to-back so I probably won't do it again, I just wanted to make sure it was nothing to worry about!
Apart from this everything has worked fine for me on it so I really don't want to swap to another pill!

I have been using Nuvaring for a little over 3 years in the 4 weeks in 1 week out method. I always take it out on a Friday, get my period Monday night or Tuesday morning and it is tapering off by friday.
However last weekend I forgot to take out the ring on Friday & didn't take it out until Sunday. I know the ring isn't approved for more than 4 weeks of use but my period did come exactly 2 days later than usual on Thursday. I put a new ring in on Friday anyway and my period stopped by Saturday morning. But this morning I woke up to more bleeding. I have only ever had breakthrough bleeding when I tried to skip the withdrawal week & just insert a new ring. This breakthrough bleeding lasted about a week until I just took the ring out 1 week early (3 weeks in) & had a regular period. So basically I bled off and on for 2 weeks or so. It was really annoying. It's a different kind of blood, a darker brown color (as it was the only other time I had breakthrough bleeding). My partner is uncomfortable having sex on my period (old school I know but I find it a little less romantic having to take out a tampon mid way through foreplay & put a towel down beneath you too!). So, that just kind of makes this even more of a pain for me. I really don't want to have breakthrough bleeding for this whole month, but since last time I experienced it it stayed until my withdrawal week I just get the feeling that's what will happen. Should I just take the ring out for another week &a use a backup form of birth control?

I've been on nuvaring for awhile now and i decided to get off if it because i've gained a lot of weight.. Anyways, i got off of it on the 21 day when I'm suppose to take it out and never put it back in a week later because that's the right way to get off if it.. so my question is i got my period that same week i was suppose to get it and now a week and a half later I'm starting to spot can it be that my hormones are all messed up from coming off nuvaring birthcontrol?

I've been spotting while on NuvaRing which is odd for me because I've been using this for years with no problems. I went to the doctor in the middle of November to renew my prescription. They gave me a pregnancy test which came out negative. I had sex once in October and haven't since then.
In December my period came on a Wednesday and I forgot to get a new ring to put in to skip my period. I put in the ring the same day my period started, Wednesday, but I'm supposed to put in a new one Sundays. Anywho had a regular period but last week I had slight cramping for a day and some spotting. This week the same thing. The spotting is only lasting one day. What the heck is going on? Just old blood?

I have been taking birth control pills for about 6 years now, on and off. I usually take it every month, however for the last month I did not take the pills. My periods did not come after the month ended but it came after about two months for itself. I started taking the pills after my periods finished and into about a week of the pills, I began spotting, this never happened before. I have protected sex with my bf, so I highly doubt I am pregnant, but I still wanted to find out what could be the causes of my irregular spotting?

I am 31 and have been taking Warfarin (i.e. generic Coumadin) for three months for a Pulmonary Embolism I developed back in October. I have a Mirena and usually have very light and short periods. However, I've been on my period for about 8 or 9 days now. It's not heavy and I'm not in a lot of pain, but I'm wondering if anyone knows if this is normal or not since I'm taking blood thinners?

I'm very scared and freaked out right now. I've been on Birth Control (Tri-Previfem) for two years now and have never spotted in between periods. I went to visit my boyfriend last week and we had unprotected sex, but he didn't finish inside me. During the four days I was visiting him I took my pill inconsistently. I normally take it at 8:00 am every morning, but I was taking it at around 9 or 10 am while visiting him.
It's been a week since the unprotected sex and I've been taking my pill constantly at 8 am, but I just noticed very dark brown, almost black discharge when I go to the bathroom and wipe.
I'm freaking out because this has never happened and I don't know what to do so I thought that someone might have some advice or answers.
